据 Ars Technica 报道，此次 2027 款更新的核心变化集中在座舱布局与配置层面。R1S 作为 Rivian 旗下的三排座电动 SUV，此前第二排仅提供整体式长椅布局，而独立座椅的加入意味着第二排乘客可以获得更接近豪华 MPV 的乘坐体验——两张独立座椅之间留出中央通道，便于第三排乘客进出，同时每张座椅具备独立的调节功能。报道指出，这一配置在 Rivian 车主社区中长期位列需求榜首。
定价方面，原文明确提到 2027 款车型的起售价与 2026 款保持一致，Rivian 并未因新增配置选项而调整基础价格体系。不过，关于独立座椅是否作为选装包单独收费、具体选装价格是多少，以及是否仅在特定续航或动力版本上提供，原文未提供进一步细节。
从产品节奏来看，Rivian 目前正处于 R1 平台的中期迭代阶段。此前该公司已通过软件更新和年度款型调整逐步优化车辆能效、充电表现与座舱舒适性。此次 2027 款在保持价格稳定的前提下引入高需求配置，反映出 Rivian 试图在不推高入门门槛的情况下，通过配置差异化增强 R1S 在大型电动 SUV 细分市场的竞争力。关于 2027 款 R1T 皮卡是否同步获得类似的座舱更新，原文同样未作说明。

It's time for Rivian's changeover from model year 2026 to 2027, and the electric vehicle startup has decided to take a page from its recently released R2 SUV and apply it to the company's larger, more expensive R1 line. The changes aren't massive—the R1 got a refresh back in 2024 that saw the R1S SUV and R1T pickup each get some comprehensive re-engineering with new powertrain options, a new electronic architecture, and new batteries.
But among them is the No. 1 most-requested feature by Rivian R1S customers, the automaker told Ars: captain's chairs for the second row. The six-seat interior is an alternative to a middle bench, and the Rivian captain's chair looks thoughtfully designed, with a hidden cupholder that I'm not sure I've seen on any other SUV before. The chairs are also spaced so it's easy to get to the third row, or use that volume between them for skis or snowboards or surfboards.
Rivian has also changed the trims, bringing them into line with the offer structure on the recently released R2. Instead of choosing from Dual, Tri, or R1s, Rivian is now calling them Premium and Performance; Quad stays Quad. But the base price for each stays the same: The R1T still starts at 83,990.
